Welcome, I'm Avis, and I will help you find more joy and satisfaction in your life.
I've been guiding clients for over 30 years, addressing the concerns that stop them from feeling good about themselves and their relationships.
I can help you.
Do you overeat or drink too much, or spend money unwisely when you are stressed? Or are you upset because you witness these behaviors in a loved one?
You think, “I should be able to figure this out myself,” or, “Maybe it’s not such a big deal.”
But then you criticize yourself or get depressed because you can’t “fix” what is bothering you.
Uneasy feelings keep cropping up. You keep thinking the same thoughts, over and over, without getting any clearer about what to do.
You don’t need to struggle with these problems alone.
Talking with a person outside your immediate circle can help — someone who is knowledgeable, empathic and unbiased, and who has your best interests at heart.
My work has been featured in the San Francisco Chronicle, the Contra Costa Times and the Pacific Sun.
I will help you transform your self-sabotaging habits and self-critical thinking into self-affirming behaviors that promote your confidence, improve your relationships and increase your well-being.
Eating to feel better is not an unusual phenomenon. But do you routinely use food to cope -- and then feel your eating is out of control?
Codependency
Do you think it's your job to make people around you happy? Or to continually "help" them? Does your peace of mind depend on how other people feel -- and feel about you?
Couples Counseling
Do you feel misunderstood or unheard by your partner? Do you crave less tension and more connection with your partner?
